MSNBC, if you're listening -

Elyse Jordan has to go.

She is testy and unprofessional. I just watched here get defensive when someone tried to approach a point of hers from a different perspective. I have seen her do this same thing before.

Why is she even there? She doesn't bring any redeeming contribution to the program.

And she is weird! She holds her face in very strange poses. Creepy to look at.

1. Yeah... She's bugged me for years. I won't add more detail, but she is a lot like Scarborough

in that she has NOT let go of her Republican roots. It comes out in unpleasant ways when debating others not infrequently, IMO.

2. The last time she did this

she said she was a "libertarian". Okay, whatever. She's still way too defensive and closed minded for a discussion panel. Her points are straight from the rightwing blogosphere no matter what she wants to call herself.

4. this makes sense

'Ashcroft in America research project studying voter attitudes during the midterm elections. She was a policy advisor to Senator Rand Paul’s 2016 presidential campaign. During the Bush administration, Elise worked in the White House Office of Presidential Speechwriting and at the State Department as a speechwriter and advisor to Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice.

3. she's odd and rarely blinks if ever, not a fan

[Ars Longa]

5. Agreed! She appears awkward and out of place--- OTOH Molly Jong Fast

is Great!

7. Molly is feminist writer Erica Jong's daughter. I disagree about Elise Jordan.

I have liked her when she was first on Morning Joe because she would push back on him. I think she got under his skin a bit since she went to Yale (undergrad) and he famously didn't get into Yale Law School (Mika sometimes gives him a little jab about that).

6. More proof that every stage should have a trap door underneath each chair.
